We wanted to share our favorite Ethiopian selections with you in this Dinkinesh Box Set.
All of our Ethiopian coffees are under the Dinkinesh name, which means "You are Marvelous" in Amharic, one of the languages of Ethiopia, and references Lucy, the famous pre-human Australopithecus skeleton. We think it's the perfect name: Ethiopia is also the birthplace of coffee, and many trees still grow wild there. Almost every variety of coffee out in the world today is descended from Ethiopian coffees.
These coffees are complex, delicate, and dynamic, and each offers something new and different. We've included four of our Dinkinesh offerings as a beautiful example of this complexity.
- DALE: a sweet delicate coffee with floral notes like orange blossom and sweet red tea and fruity undertones of mango and a lemonade aftertaste.
- GOGOGU: tastes like peach cobbler, cranberry, jasmine with sugar cane sweetness.
- YUKRO: this coffee brings blueberry, lemonade, peach and black tea.
- TULISE WASHED: gives some of the classic Yirgacheffe characteristics alongside honeysuckle, white peach, and citrus undertones in a tea-like cup.
We recommend tasting them side by side for a fun experience.
Enjoy!
